its too bad those are expensive, cause those woven parts last 10 minutes with a love bird. put something more durable on yours like leather.

Oh my goodness I just looked at the price on that toy you posted. SEVENTY DOLLARS?

It's a $12 ferret ball with some little toys and a chain. I hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes here but wow that's an outrageous price.

So for your toy, did you use a ferret ball or a solid ball, and if it was solid how did you make such big holes?

Sorry if this sounds dumb it's really early in the morning over here heheh.

I want a ball too!
How do you make your own balls? Or you just buy a plain ball and then hang some toys on it?

Those look like fun...it's sad that the price is so outrageous...I would use a ferret ball, since you will have two holes in it already...
